    I fricking love Judit and G&G. A highly affordable no-nonsene skincare brand shipping from within the eu, unique products priced well below market-price and great service. Its been a God-sent! Thank you! Im so impressed and excited to see which composit- serums you've got in the pipeline for 2023. (pigmentation please! wink wink )

    Clare, you always have the best interviews! I actually prefer the Geek & Gorgeous A-Game 10 serum and think it's better than the Medik8 Crystal Retinal as it's not fragranced and easier to spread. Judit has achieved an incredible amount in the skincare space in such a short time. Keep these insightful interviews coming. Thanks Clare!

    I've discovered this brand very recently. Saw their C Glow serum on Hot&Flashy channel. Angie talked highly of it, then I saw Dr Dray's review and I was impressed. I was even more impressed and extremely happy to find out that I could buy it and get it delivered to me in Spain in 48 hours at a very affordable price. I have just started using it and I have high hopes with this vitamin C serum. If it works for me, I am going to be a very faithful customer and will try other products. Fingers crossed.
    All the best to this brand.

    I also have the vitamin C and I always buy three at a time and keep them all in the fridge. I've never had any turn yellow on me. I appreciate the transparency and education around the instability of vitamin C at Geek and Gorgeous. I haven't seen that anywhere else.

      @@ArbuzoweMango I'm pretty consistent and I share my vitamin C with my partner because I'm trying to get him into skincare. I think it takes us six weeks of daily use to go through a bottle. I love the G&G brand. The only thing is I would prefer to be able to use a single all-in-one serum which is quicker and takes up less space, and that's the only reason why I might end up looking elsewhere.

    OMG how wonderful is Judit .. I LOVED this interview - thank you Clare. I have started using the G and G Vitamin C serum (C Glow) and it is lovely on the skin. I wonder what the difference is between their Retinal and the Medik8 one (apart from the price!) .. I would be interested to know as the Medik8 strength 10 is almost 100 euro now .. I saw that you had an insert of a comparison video .. any chance of a link to it please???? Thanks a mill.

    Clare, your skin looks beautiful, I’m really noticing a difference. Are you still using the serum to restore facial fat or have you stopped? Not to mention a competitive brand but the Ordinary has a water like serum called Botox in a bottle that professional makeup artists swear by for their clients called Argeriline (sp?) It works especially well in treating 11’s (downward lines between the eyebrows) and I can tell the difference if I’m out of product. So now I keep a backup! Just wanted to share with your subscribers. Perhaps her brand Geek and Gorgeous carries the formula as well. Thanks for bringing us the best information and people.

    Dear The Honest Channel: could you review ‘Skintelligent’ by Dr Natalia Spierings, truly a breath of fresh air regarding ‘Big Skincare’.
    The brand is literally a wake-up call to those who buy expensive products. The brand is literally incredible in its ethos
    Product formulation and technologies haven’t changed much in at least 20-30 years. Their prices and formulations literally had me stop buying skinceuticals
